HE girls attending the Milwaukee
pubic schools are to be taught cooking
and domestic economy. The proper
place to learn cooking is in the kitchen
at home. Possibly, instruction given in
what Will be known as the culinary art"
to distinguish it from the plebeian art of
cooking, may induce some girls to visit
the kitchen who would not do SO other
wise because the work is considered me-
NAL. The girl who can cook well is apt to
be sensible girl. There is something
IN dealing with practical affairs which
lnculcates good sense. The education of
girl no matter how much veneer it may
have In accomplishments, is imperfect
without knowledge of domestic affairs.
The girl who can cook has an accom-
plshment which is far more to be valued
than ability to play on the piano unless
she chooses to become the ideal old maid
and make things unpleasant for mankind
through the medium of dyspepsia. 4
man whose stomach is in rebellion be-
cause of being subjected to various Of
lenses in the line OF unpalatable food is
hardly IN proper frame of mind to APP
preciate the esthetic culture of his wife
which appeared so charming when foolish
young love elevated him beyond the con-
temptation of bread and butter and other
sublunary things which play an important
part in making up the sum of human
happiness. 1t would not be bad thing
to have little cooking taught in our
schools. Yes, and other matters pertain
ing to the home-except darning stock
ings.

raided by the police on Monday night.
Mas and woman ''boarder" were taken
to jail to await a hearing. The next day
Justice Kiland fined the man SO and
costs and the woman so. They paid the
fines and were released. A hard looking
old man whose name no one knew offer
ed to marry the woman if the justice
would remit her fine, but the iron grasp
of the law couldn't be relaxed for any
such consideration and the old fellow is

A MAN named George Hubs, living in
the vicinity of Kellnersville, was driving
to the city on load of wood on Tuesday.
When near the railroad crossing on the
Plank Road his horses were frightened
by passing train and ran away. The
man was thrown to the ground, the wag-
on passing over his legs below the knee.
He scrambled up and put out after the
team which had been stopped little
further on. Mounting the load he drove
to the city, sold and unloaded the wood
and then began investigating the dam
ages. He consulted a physician who
found one of the bones of the right leg
broken and the shin bone of the left leg
laid bare for several inches.

Vernon persists in his statement that the
steamer was overloaded and that there
was great amount of hard drinking on

drinkers. They are said to have been
frequently in a state of intoxication while
In this city. The captain is said to have
had fit of delirium tremens while out
on the lake some time ago. 1t seems in
credible that these facts did not reach
the ears of his employers.
